BACKUP

Cancelling or Pausing a backup

The status of any backup currently taking place is displayed within the Progress Meter. This appears as a separate window providing a clear indication of the data being transferred.

To view the Progress Meter window during a scheduled backup, click on the "Backup Status" button on the toolbar or select File > Backup Status. During a manual backup (one that has been started by selecting the "Backup Now" button on the toolbar) the Progress Meter window will appear automatically.

The Progress Meter also allows for a backup to be cancelled or paused.

To cancel a backup:

  1. Select the "Cancel" button on the Progress Meter.
  2. Follow the on-screen instructions.

    Note: By selecting Cancel, any files already transferred to the our servers during that session will not be backed up.

To pause a backup:

  1. Select the "Pause" button on the Progress Meter.
  2. Follow the on-screen instructions

    Note: Any files already transferred to the our servers during that session will be backed up and saved.

    When the backup is resumed these files will not need to be re-sent unless they have changed.

    To continue the backup at any time, first select the backup definition and then click the "Backup Now" button on the toolbar or select File > Backup Now, or wait for the next scheduled backup.
